I like daydreaming and spending other peoples money...so.. :p Honestly, I look at that dash layout and think "that could not have been more poorly laid out". They should have put the switches to the right and left a big space for a 12" MFD. There is nothing on your dash that can't be moved...

As Denis said, get installation template on Garmin site. Here are screen shots of 7" + 9" but on their site you can Print in actual size to get your real template. https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?partNumber=010-02365-61&tab=manuals If you can fit a 9 get a 9. This is an "oppurtunity" to...

You can just have the marina do it and pay them what they want. its going to be $$$ for labor. You can get an exact replacement or something nicer. Thats going to be $$$. After thats done, it will turn green and look crappy in only a couple of years. You can do it yourself and save $$$. If...

Would have liked to see a set of the new lightweight v6 mercs on a 265. Several have talked about it but haven't seen it yet. They were first year when I was looking so no history. And it was covid and yu couldn't get them. Merc is brunswick corp so I imagine the Navico/Lawrence/Simrad stuff...

Great video. Thanks for taking the time. Replacing the existing Groco stuff is the simplest way for a DIY. IDK if I missed it but there is usually a switch and breaker for the macerator on the dash panel or DC panel. Or there is a fuse. There are many posts here on Great Grady regarding...

It exists somewhere. Its not in their brouchures, that I could find, so it must be in an installation or owner's manual. You can't make assuptions based on your Yamahas. Also, read through my Suzuki DF200AP post and pay attention to the Steering cylinder and Tie bar placement issues that I ran...

Do you have this diagram but for 3.4L V6 mercury?

I can't imagine any motor having problems with the fold down tailgate. Somewhere there is a manual that will show all of the dimensions and the swing of the v6 motor

Aussie, we are all anxiously awaiting more from your project!

I have not got around to it but I'm planning to put a flat step where the wiper was. If you ever try to work on your hardtop you will understand how slippery that slope is... Also, kicking around a plan to have "washer" hose aimed from hardtop to front isenglass. To rinse with fresh water when...

That looks different than mine, but my tanks were replaced so they probably took that piece out and replaced it with something. I’ll have to look around for a picture. My boat is covered up for the winter right now. Question. Did you check the dates on the tanks to see if they have been replaced...

Paying for a new 120 gallon tank just to keep it filled, so it doesn't go bad, seems kinda silly... :rolleyes: If they seem to be good, wait a year or two, spread out the pain... If you are repowering and fixing a transom, you are committing to 10 years or more? You will eventually need the...

Its nothing special to Grady. Just a 12v dc wiper. Try to source an Aussie one that fits. Brands like Marinco, AFI, Seadog. Once you install it you will realize that you can't see anything through the windshield on a 265 anyways... The electronics bubble blocks the view out windshield. I...

I know some good NJ tank shops but...You need to find a local tank fabricator because shipping tanks is crazy expensive. As I said, you could get away with just the 130 gal main (fwd) tank. that'll give you at least a 180 mile range at 30mph. If you want more, you could fit an aft prefab...

My dock also has very high pressure (great to have for washing dozens of boats). Sometimes the pressure is so high that the quick connect flush fitting will not connect. I have to turn the pressure down or kink the hose to connect, then once connected apply full water pressure. The high...

Some pix. Laser level is at bottom of keel. 90” from top of rail to the keel That leaves plenty extra in down position

yes pvc pipe cutter I can't say for sure that they work on 1500 psi hose as I have not tried that. The ID is correct but they may have a thicker wall and not fit in the collar? Also, remember, the collar is reverse threaded....lefty tighty!

Thanks! Did he have pix? I will measure five more times and stare at it for a couple weeks. Figure out how its going to angle in there. I have a Capstan and a samson post up there. May ditch the capstan and use the wiring for Kraken. Will have to cut rail. I think that rail is poorly designed...

Your switches can make Bank 2 run the stbd & house and bank 1 run the port motor. Assuming it is still wired the way the manual shows. Don't assume anything, trace it out and understand what you have. Some people(like me) have changed the config to have a separate two battery House and two Start...

Is there anyone with a 265 express with a bow mount trolling motor? any brand... Actual 265x experience requested..... I am kicking the idea around and I am wondering if a 90" will work well. It seems to fall into the parameters of the installation guide (Garmin Kraken) The difference in price...
